Actually seal tastes like a combination of BEEF & PORK.
NOT BAD eating, imVho.
(Artic people eat a good bit of seal. - I was once, long ago, TDY, for a few weeks, with a Native group up near the Artic Circle.)

Many years ago, I remember reading about early Spanish and Portuguese explorers in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean. They were of course under the dietary proscriptions of the Catholic church which called for fish on Fridays and during Lent. When they encountered manatees they believed they were fish and referred to them in their journals as, "fish that tasted like beef."
